for solo, duet, trio, and SATB with organ
Vincent Novello's arrangement of four verses of the well-known 'Hymn for Christmas' builds from soprano solo, through duet for tenor and bass and trio for alto, tenor and bass (with melody in the middle part), to a full SATB final verse. The traditional English text is given together with the original Latin. Colin Mawby has supplied a fascinating preface tracing the history of the piece.
